This is not mechanical ascension.

Li Ming was a little surprised when he heard this. He stared at the young man's face, not knowing whether it was a mimic mask.

He did not have the noble and restrained arrogance that he had when he first met Ford and Isius.

He seemed to be just narrating this passage very calmly.

"As expected of a person from the Xingyuan Empire." Li Ming praised, "Are you a member of the royal family?"

Although the Xingyuan Empire is called an empire, in fact, its own system has been developed for countless years and is extremely special.

It is a somewhat distorted parliamentary system, divided into the upper and lower houses of the parliament, and the two speakers have the same rights.

In addition, the royal family, which has experienced several internal coups and has long been less powerful than before, jointly controls this huge interstellar empire.

Li Ming wanted to find out the other party's origins in preparation for subsequent responses.

"Whether it is or not has nothing to do with you." Gabriel said lightly.

"Even if you are not a member of the royal family, looking at your aristocratic taste that is about to overflow, you should belong to the royal system," Li Ming said to himself.

Neither side paid attention to the other's question. Gabriel frowned slightly, "Do you think there is anyone who can save you?"

Gabriel seemed to think that Li Ming did not recognize the current situation. "I can tell you that the closed space position on your body can isolate all traces, including the information state. Even if it is close, your teacher will not be able to find your trace."

"Tsk, it really deserves to be the Xingyuan Empire." Li Ming praised again.

Gabriel shook his head. "Twenty-seven days after Isius' death, I arrived at the Blue Star Civilization and investigated the matter in detail from beginning to end."

"I know the information of everyone present, including you."

"Silver Gray Star, a speck of dust in the interstellar space." Gabriel's voice was low, as if he was sighing: "You may be the most powerful person born on this planet in countless years."

"You are actually very powerful, or Qinglong is very powerful, but your relationship with him should not be that close, otherwise you would not need to connect with Wu Yanqing."

Gabriel's tone was firm: "He should have asked you to connect. Wu Yanqing is involved with Asmara, and Asmara knows the ruins of the sublimator. What a big chess game."

Li Ming's eyes were strange. This guy also made up his mind?

However, it does sound serious and can even form a logical loop.

Gabriel's eyes fell on Li Ming again: "I'll give you a chance. Stay with me. What the great mechanic can give you, I can also give you. How about it?"

"Uh..." Li Ming's face became more and more strange. Intimidation failed, so he turned to bribery?

That's not right... Li Ming thought about it, "Don't you have any psychic ability users around you? Don't you plan to look at my memory directly?"

"Because I admire you very much." Gabriel's answer was beyond Li Ming's expectations.

Why do I feel like I've heard this sentence before...

"As you said, I can let the psychic ability users check your memory. There is no need to lie to you. Your development potential is not low. You will definitely become an A-level life form. I can give you a bigger stage." Gabriel further said.

"I can give you ten minutes to think about it." Gabriel did not ask Li Ming to answer immediately. He swept across the battlefield not far away, his eyes stopped on Qinglong, turned around and left, and said at the same time:

"Send a message to Asmara. Her plan failed, and she should be in a bad mood."

The people behind him quickly caught up, and Li Ming in the center was suppressed and unable to resist.

On the battlefield, Li Ming's real body moved slightly, and his attention was withdrawn. Tiago had been escorted back. For some reason, Sandro, who was sitting on pins and needles, chose to escort him.

Ulrich frowned, "Mr. Qinglong, since the person has been taken away, can you explain why Tiago came from the Bernest civilization to ambush you? And what about the deal between you and Asmara that he mentioned before?"

"Wait a moment." Li Ming waved his hand, and his eyes inadvertently looked in the direction where the mimic projection was taken away.

The mimic projection has a distance limit with his original existence, which cannot exceed 5,000 meters at most. He needs to catch up as soon as possible.

However, before that, he still has something to do.

Ulrich was unhappy, but thinking of the battle just now, he suppressed his dissatisfaction in his heart and followed the other party to the warehouse at the dock port.

The warehouse is not located inside the port, and the distance is a little farther, so it was not destroyed by the aftermath of the battle just now.

At the same time, Li Ming was fortunate that the location of the warehouse was not much different from the direction where the group of people left.

"Lord Ulrich, Lord Qing... Lord Qinglong..." The warehouse supervisor had just returned from the battlefield. He was a bristle boar man with dense black hair on both sides of his cheeks. At this moment, his face was pale and his thick legs were shaking.

"I'm here to pick up the goods. I just put something here." Li Ming reported his name and order number. The warehouse supervisor checked with fear, and then his face changed drastically, "Lord Qinglong, we didn't know it was you. You store things here, it must be free..."

"I'll return the money to you right away."

Ulrich behind him looked very unhappy. The people under him were too spineless. What's wrong with not being tough or humble?

The owner of the trading island is still here. Is it worth it for Qinglong to do anything to you for this little money?

A bunch of trash!

"No need, just take me to pick up the goods." Li Ming shook his head and emphasized.

"Yes... yes!" The supervisor hurriedly took Li Ming into the warehouse. The slender box was placed casually on the ground. Li Ming did not open it, but just touched it through the gap, and nodded: "Very good, remember to have someone send it to the castle."

"Understood." The supervisor nodded repeatedly, and Ulrich's eyes swept over the box, vaguely curious.

After giving the order, Li Ming had no intention of going back. He left the back door of the warehouse and began to wander aimlessly on the block.

At least Ulrich behind him looked like this. As for Theo, he had no expression on his face and followed silently.

"What... are you doing?" Ulrich frowned, eager to know the ins and outs of the matter. He had guessed several possibilities along the way.

"Shh." Li Ming signaled Ulrich to shut up, as if he was listening to something, and then his figure suddenly disappeared, a sonic boom exploded on the spot, and the air flow was vented and dispersed, causing a burst of shouts.

Ulrich's pupils contracted, and he looked in another direction in an instant, and hurriedly chased after him.

In the most luxurious room of the hotel several blocks away, the last soldier to come in closed the door.

Others were setting up various anti-monitoring equipment. Everyone was shrouded in a strange position, and the windows were closed.

Then, the pressure on the projection suddenly eased, and Li Ming looked around.

Gabriel picked up a bottle of brown-yellow wine, with a hot mermaid girl on the outer packaging.

He poured it into a glass, handed it to Li Ming, raised his head and drank it, and tasted it, "Sometimes, try this cheap blended wine, it's a different flavor."

After saying that, he raised the bottle in his hand, scanned the mermaid on the outer packaging, and then shook his head.

Li Ming also tasted it, but unfortunately the mimic projection had no sense of taste.

"Have you considered it?" Gabriel asked, seeming very patient, but then added: "This is your last chance. If you refuse, there is no turning back."

Li Ming pondered for a moment, did not respond, but looked in another direction: "What are they doing?"

Gabriel's expression was slightly gloomy. In that direction, several of his men were operating some small instruments, taking out needles from the metal side wall, and a series of data was displayed on the LCD screen.

"Gene comparison." Gabriel's voice was a little colder, "Human face, auricle, pupil, appearance characteristics, nature, and behavioral habits can all deceive people. I need to be 100% sure of your identity."

"I remember there is a race that seems to be able to simulate genes?" Li Ming hesitated.

"So they don't exist." Gabriel shook his head, "Encephalogram detection takes a long time, and gene comparison is enough."

"Wait, I have another question." Li Ming saw that the blood drawer had come over and said quickly.

Gabriel thought he was patient enough, but he was still a little impatient now.

The blood drawer ignored him and inserted the needle through the skin.

But no blood was drawn from the needle. The soldier in charge of drawing blood seemed to be stunned, and his movements froze for a moment, and then he suddenly shouted with horror in his voice, "Your Highness!?"

"Your Highness?" Li Ming grinned, half of his body had become illusory.

Gabriel behind him pushed him away, and his indifference was gone. Surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Ronan"

"Yes." The figure who had been standing behind him raised his hand, and the space where Li Ming was instantly condensed, the dust froze, and it seemed that even the air was not circulating.

But Li Ming's body still remained unhurried and scattered, with a faint smile on his face until he completely disappeared:

"Your Highness... We will meet again soon."

Gabriel frowned, but still remained calm, just staring at the place where Li Ming disappeared.

"Your Highness, there is no change in the data inside the room, and no energy fluctuations are detected." The subordinates reported quickly.

"A brilliant move." Ronan's face was not looking good. "When he collapsed, I vaguely noticed that he didn't seem to be a physical entity, but a clone."

"Is he still a superpower?" Gabriel looked indifferent.

"There is no energy fluctuation." Ronan shook his head. For a moment, it seemed difficult to explain. He hesitated and said, "It's more like a projection with a physical entity."

"Projection?" Gabriel was a little confused. Ronan didn't think too much about it. Instead, he said solemnly, "Your Highness, we should leave as soon as possible."

Gabriel took a deep breath and realized that he was fooled. This Li Ming was just a bait. It can even be said that he was not Li Ming at all, but he foolishly took the bait.

He was slightly annoyed, not at Li Ming, but at himself. He underestimated him too much.

The soldiers under him were well-trained and quickly packed up their things, but when they were about to leave, Ronan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked at the door solemnly.

Silently, cracks appeared on the metal door, spreading like a spider web, and finally shattered like glass, scattering all over the floor.

Gabriel's expression changed slightly. Standing behind the door was the silver mechanical body that had previously assisted the great mechanic Qinglong in the battle.

"Everyone, my master has not allowed you to leave." Monroe adjusted his voice without any fluctuations in his tone. He was actually a little embarrassed when he said this.

But thinking of Qinglong's entrustment, he still cooperated in acting to avoid the other party seeing the clues.

Ronan said in a deep voice: "Whether we can leave or not does not need your master to decide."

"Since you are a Class A combat machine, you should not be a pure intelligent body, but a mechanical life. We don't want to cause greater losses to your master for the time being. Get out of the way!"

He witnessed the previous battle in its entirety. The overall strength of the machine blocking the road in front of him was not high, and he could easily defeat it.

However, once the noise got out of hand, it would be a bit troublesome to leave.

"You guys really think about me." A voice came from outside the corridor. Gabriel's face sank slightly, and Ronan became more solemn until the other party appeared in sight.

The visitor was Qinglong, the real body Li Ming.

"Wouldn't you like to invite me in to sit down?" Li Ming asked leisurely.

Gabriel had adjusted his mentality, exhaled slowly, and said, "Please come in, both of you."

Li Ming walked in without a care, followed by Monroe, and Ronan was ready.

"That Li Ming just now, was actually you?" Gabriel asked first.

"Guess." Li Ming smiled implicitly.

Gabriel really didn't like this atmosphere of being led by the nose, so he simply asked directly: "What are you going to do?"

"Catch me? Or kill me?"

"You are from the Xingyuan Empire, how dare I?" Li Ming pretended to be surprised.

People from the Xingyuan Empire?

Monroe, who was standing still and pretending to be a robot, was surprised, but it made sense. The enemies provoked by people like Qinglong must be of this level.

Gabriel frowned, but saw the other party showing an elusive smile, "But I'm very curious, what do you want to do by caring so much about me."

"Although the outside world has rumors that I am an exiled great mechanic and have caused great trouble, I know that I have nothing to do with your Xingyuan Empire."

Gabriel was silent, and the atmosphere gradually became quiet.

"Curiosity." He said, "It's because we can't find out your origins that we are curious."

"What if I can't satisfy your curiosity? Catch me and kill me?" Li Ming asked

"You two are not my opponents either." Ronan said abruptly, seemingly having nothing to do with the topic, "You can only barely suppress Tiago together. As for Ulrich and others, they can't possibly offend Xingyuan Empire because of you."

"I understand, I understand." Li Ming seemed much calmer. This Ronan seemed to be able to affect space.

I don't know if he is a mutant or a genetically evolved body, but he must be extremely powerful if he is stained with the word space.

"The big figures of Xingyuan Empire are good. They have life forms of this level to follow them when they go out for adventure." Li Ming said with a disappointed tone.
